Chapter 19: Lee's Laundry
In the second room, Li was sitting on the kang, flipping through the rags that Song Qingyuan brought back, and the rags were turned over in a mess and thrown on the kang, but they were everywhere.
"Where did you get all these old rags?" Li looked at Song Qingyuan suspiciously.
"Pick it up!" Song Qingyuan said casually.
"You're stupid! You go pick it up for me. Li pouted, "These two packs of rags will cost at least ten cents." ”
"It seems that my mother understands the market quite well!" Song Qingyuan rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Mother, do you want to make money?" ”
"Why, why don't you want to!" As soon as Li heard the money, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wash three pieces of laundry for a penny." Song Qingyuan compared three with his fingers, and then one.
"Wash it for whom? Where to wash? Li asked anxiously.
Now she doesn't have a penny in her hand, and she has been taken away by the Zhou family, so she can't buy some snacks if she wants to.
"Me!" Song Qingyuan stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, took out a penny from his cuff, and shook it. "As long as the mother ......"
A hand suddenly stretched out, Song Qingyuan hurriedly clenched his fists, joking, she had just suffered a loss on Shiro, how could she make the same mistake.
Song Qingyuan smiled slightly and continued, "As long as the mother washes three pieces of clothes, the money is the mother's." ”
"Dead girl, eat me and drink me, and come with me, you hurry up and bring it over, otherwise you will see if I will beat you." Li glared and threatened Song Qingyuan.
Song Qingyuan immediately jumped away, dodging the Li clan's attack range, and chuckled, "Mother, I just need to shout now that this penny is milk, and you won't be able to get it." ”
"You dead girl, you dare to threaten me, see if I don't kill you." As he spoke, he was going to do it, the Li family didn't care so much, he was used to beating the original owner since he was a child, so he naturally didn't take Song Qingyuan's words to heart.
"Milk~" Song Qingyuan immediately shouted, "Today's egg ......"
"Shut up, you damn girl." Li roared under his breath.
Walked quickly to the door, pushed the door open a crack, looked out with his eyes dripping, and was relieved that he didn't find anyone coming out of the room.
"You dead girl, why did I give birth to such a thing as you." Li pointed at Song Qingyuan and scolded, but after all, he didn't dare to do it.
"A penny is just enough to buy an egg, can you earn it?" Song Qingyuan turned around and sat on the kang and asked with a relaxed expression.
"Two pieces!" Li Shi stretched out two fingers, "Three pieces are too many." ”
Song Qingyuan lowered his head and pretended to think, and after a while, the Li family who was waiting was a little anxious, and Song Qingyuan said, "Okay, two pieces are just two pieces." ”
"But there are two requirements, the first point is that the clothes should be washed, and I won't pay if they are not clean. The second point is that you have to wash it by yourself, and you can't ask my third aunt for help. Song Qingyuan deliberately emphasized.
Li's expression froze, and he snorted coldly, "You have a lot to do." Originally, she planned to ask the Ye family to help wash it, anyway, the clothes in their room were often washed by the Ye family.
"First wash the one you were wearing, as well as the one my third brother changed yesterday."
"I'll check it after it's washed, and when it's clean, the penny is yours."
When he heard that he was washing his clothes, Li felt a little more comfortable.
It seems that it is not bad to make money by washing clothes for myself and my son.
It's just that...... Li Shi looked down at the clothes on his body, "I don't bury this, I don't need to wash the new ones." ”
Song Qingyuan pointed to the snot marks on the corner of Li's clothes, "Is this still called burying?" And I remember you were wearing this eight days ago. "The day she first came, Li wore this one.
In the memory of the original owner, the last time the second room washed the clothes was half a month ago.
"Clothes cannot be washed all the time, they are easy to wash." Lee argued.
"I'll patch you if it's broken. There are so many rags here, you can make as many patches as you want. Song Qingyuan pointed to the rags full of kang that were thrown and said.
"If you don't want to wash this one, then I'll pick another one for you to wash, and you'll have to wash two anyway." Song Qingyuan took off his shoes and went to the kang as he spoke.
There is a large wooden box on the kang, which is specially used to hold clothes.
Opening the box, a sour smell came to his face, Song Qingyuan covered his nose and picked out one casually, "That's it, wash this." "No wonder her mother didn't want to wash the one she was wearing, maybe it was her cleanest clothes.
Li reached out and took the clothes, and asked, "Where did you get the money?" ”
"Sell medicinal herbs!" Song Qingyuan replied casually.
"How much did it sell?" Li stared at Song Qingyuan.
"Fifteen! I bought rag heads. Song Qingyuan said truthfully.
"You scumbag, what's the use of buying these rags." Li looked at Song Qingyuan dissatisfiedly and scolded.
"Practice embroidery! Didn't you let me learn embroidery? Song Qingyuan said as he sorted out the messy rags.
"Then you don't need to be so old!" Li Shi said angrily, and then muttered, "What's the use of letting you embroider, you don't know if you have money." After this incident, she understood, even Song Qingyuan made money by doing embroidery, and it was estimated that it would be difficult for her to get it.
"Also, where did you get the herbs?" She's going to get it, too.
"Picked in the mountains!"
In the mountains? "What herbs?" Li immediately asked.
Song Qingyuan looked at Li's anxious appearance and smiled faintly, "You wash your clothes first, and we'll talk about this issue after they're washed." ”
"Hmph, what's the use of raising a girl, now I have learned to regulate her mother." Li snorted coldly, glanced at Song Qingyuan fiercely, picked up his clothes and went outside.
She can see that if the clothes are not washed, this dead girl will not tell her.
............
When Li finished washing his clothes, Song Qingyuan was sitting on the kang and sorting out the rags she bought.
Song Qingyuan felt that these rags were really not expensive for five cents, even if they were ten cents, she would buy them, not to mention anything else, but the two packages containing the rags were better than the rag bags she sewed herself.
At least there is no patch for this package. It can be used to load things later.
As for the rags inside, although they are not big, or they can be said to be very small, and some are even long ones, and they can't do anything, Song Qingyuan doesn't dislike them.
It's always okay to tie something, after all, you get what you pay for, Song Qingyuan thought optimistically.
"I've washed my clothes, come and see." Li opened the door and shouted.
"Hey, here we are." Song Qingyuan went out to look at the two clothes hanging in the yard, looked at them roughly, and shook his head secretly, which was unsatisfactory!
She didn't have much hope either. Because the clothes are so dirty that you can't wash them at all. What's more, there are no soaps, laundry detergents and other detergents at home, so it's okay to be able to wash them.
"Yes, you can." Song Qingyuan nodded, and happily gave the Li family a penny.
You can't discourage her mother's enthusiasm, you can't force people to be in a hurry, you have to take your time.
